That'll probably be enough. Unless fans from other local clubs take an interest and decide to come for the day. I know a few of my dee dah friends are considering it.

Here are the initial details of the ticketing arrangements for the final of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy, but more information has still to be issued.

The 2012 Final will be played at the new Wembley Stadium on Sunday 25 March 2012, kick-off 2.00pm.

Chesterfield FC has been allocated the East side of the stadium with an initial ticket allocation of 20,000.

Ticket prices are:Adults £26, £36, £46. Concessions U17 (but only if accompanied by an adult) and senior citizens 65+ £13, £18, £23.

There will be no limit on tickets but those requiring more than 9 will need to provide details for the Football League about who has bought individual tickets.

There will be an opportunity to sell to schools, youth groups or similar regulated organisations but sales of tickets are governed by Ofsted regulations on the adult/child ratio - more details on group bookings to be issued later

Hospitality packages - more details later



Tickets will first of all be going on sale to season tickets holders, followed by loyalty card holders, before going on general sale.

More details on ticketing arrangements will be issued shortly with the aim of minimising the need for any queuing at the ticket office.

There is official away travel with True Blue Travel.Coaches depart the B2net at 8.00am, cost £25.Bookings are now being taken in the Club Superstore, telephone 209765, ext 4141.

Watch out for details of the Spireites special Wembley Final merchandise on sale soon in the Club Superstore.


For those on their phones.

I'd try to avoid the first few rows as it can be a bit too low to get a perspective of the game but to be fair theres not really a bad seat in the house.

And if you go for the cheapest seats and get the farthest back row in that category you'll get as good a view as the folks in the next expensive seats in the row behind.

Been to the first 3 NFL regular season games there, not bothered with the last couple, and the first year we got lower tier seats and sometimes found it hard to get perspective of where everyone was on the pitch/field from that low down. I know with NFL it's a bit more relevant to see where the play is in relation to yardage etc but it could still be a bit deceiving for the beautiful game.

The next two years we did Club Wembley seats and the view was superb, as you'd expect but we always said that when we next went back for an event, we'd try and get in the rows about halfway between the pitch and club wembley seats and get just as good a view for much less money.

I was on the front row for England v Wales and that wasnt that bad at all. I fancy Club Wembley this time around though.

Agree, was in the lowest tier (about half way up lowest tier) for AC/DC gig back in 2009 and view was sound as a pound, well sixty pounds in that particular instance.

Just reading the details.....how does it work with how many folk can buy. I've read it twice now and still not sure. Can season ticket holders and LC holders buy as many as they want so in theory with my LC i could buy 1 for me and a few extra for folk that dont have LC's or do i have to wait for general sale if i want to get 1 for me and 3 extra for non card holders if we want to sit together?

The way I read it is that anyone can buy as many as they want with prood needed for bookings of more than 9.

So season ticket holders can buy as many as they want first. Loyalty card holders can do the same after that and so on.

Would guess many season ticket holders will buy tickets for friends and family who are already loyalty card holders meaning after the season ticket holder window has closed, it shouldn't be as busy for loyalty card and general sale sales as many in those two categories will already have been purchased tickets from season ticket holders they know.

For instance, I'm a season ticket holder and planning on getting tickets for a number of people who are loyalty card holders and some more for people who don't have a seaon ticket or loyalty card, such as my other half, her parents etc who are all jumping on the bandwagon for the day and fair play to them, more revenue to divvy up at the end between the clubs.

Cheers. Thats more or less the way i was leaning towards taking it. Of our little group there are a couple of LC holders including myself so we should be fine to get a few together for a little group of us.

I'm not sure I think it differs depending on the event in question. As I understand it Club Wembley members have a glorified season ticket and can resell the tickets they get so I would expect packages to appear nearer the fixture.

That's how I read it too but it can't be the case surely. If all our ST holders bought 9 each there'd be none left for anyone else! The first part of the article about buying 9 etc sounds like it was cut and pasted from a jpt press release, then the stuff about st and Lc holders added by the club. A priority system as they describe can't work if st holders can buy as many as they want, so surely it will be limited to one ticket per st or Lc at the beginning.

I reckon we can shift twenty thousand...

Does anybody know anyone not going?
Some of the coaches sold out already!
Everybody seems to know three or four non regulars who want in ..

I think we may surprise a few ...

How many did we take to old trafford in 97? We had fewer regular fans then too.

What a day that was, seeing so many town fans totally own the stadium. Made boro look like the small club!
